Both geometrical and optical isomerism are shown by :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
[Co(en)2Cl2]+ show geometrical isomerism and its only cis-form show optical isomerism.


[Co(NH3)5Cl]2+ exists only in one form.

It does not shows optical isomerism because of the presence of plane of symmetry and centre of symmetry.
[Cr(OX)3]3– shows optical isomerism but does not show geometrical isomerism because of the same type of ligands.
